DESCRIPTION
The
lanadmin program administers and tests the Local Area Network (LAN). For each interface card,
it allows you to:
• Display and change the station address.
• Display and change the 802.5 Source Routing options (RIF).
• Display and change the maximum transmission unit (MTU).
• Display and change the speed setting.
• Clear the network statistics registers to zero.
• Display the interface statistics.
• Display the interface usage information.
• Reset the interface card, thus executing its self-test.
For operations other than display, you must have superuser privileges.
lanadmin reads commands from standard input, writes prompts and error messages to standard error,
and writes status information to standard output. When the program is run from a terminal, the inter-
rupt key (usually ˆC) interrupts a currently executing command; the eof key (usually ˆD) terminates the
program.
lanadmin operates in two modes: Menu Mode (see the first SYNOPSIS line) and Immediate Mode (see
the second SYNOPSIS line). If at least one of aAbBgmMpRsSxX
options is supplied, lanadmin executes
in Immediate Mode. Otherwise, it executes in Menu Mode.
NOTE:
lanadmin replaces the now obsolete landiag command beginning at 10.0.
Options
lanadmin recognizes the following Immediate Mode options. At least one aAbBmgMpRsSxX
option and
the PPA argument must be supplied.
-a Display the current station address of the interface corresponding to PPA.
-A station_addr Set the new station address of the interface corresponding to PPA. The
station_addr must be entered in hex format with a ’0x’ prefix. You must have
superuser privileges. When station_addr is
DEFAULT, the factory default physi-
cal address will be restored.
WARNING: To ensure the interface and the system work correctly, the interface
MUST be brought down before setting the new station address. After the new
station address is set, the interface should be brought up in order to be func-
tional. See ifconfig(1M) for bringing down and bringing up the interface.
-b Display the current 802.5 source routing option for the interface corresponding to
PPA.
-B on|off Turn the 802.5 source routing option on or off for the interface corresponding to
PPA. The default value for HP devices is on. You must have superuser
privileges.
-g [get_options] Get and display settings corresponding to options specified by get_options of the
interface corresponding to PPA. get_options is optional and is case insensitive.
The allowed values are mibstats and mibstats_dlpi.
mibstats Display the MIB-II statistics (RFC 1213) and interface
specific statistics.
mibstats_dlpi Display the MIB statistics from HP-DLPI.
-m Display the current MTU size of the interface corresponding to PPA.
-M mtu_size Set the new MTU size of the interface corresponding to PPA. The mtu_size value
must be within the link specific range. You must have superuser privileges.
